Water Charity

vickiem30

If anyone is worried about the money reaching the intended recipient there is always lend with care. You lend small amounts to help people in developing worlds to start/ build a business and life themselves out of poverty. As you are lending not donating, you can keep re-lending and help lots of people. You don't get interest, but the default rate is very low.

I really like it because rather than giving charity, you are saying I believe in your business and I am prepared to invest in it.

I really want to donate to a charity (preferably UK) that focuses primarily on clean water and sanitation solutions for third world countries.

This appeal by WaterAid might be of interest as the government will match every pound you donate before 18th September 2012.

Pump Aid, Thirsty Planet ...

you can always request that your donation should be used for a specific project, and not go into the 'general fund'.
